Secondus Speaks On Suit Seeking Dissolution Of Ayu-led NWC

A former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Uche Secondus, has distanced himself from a case seeking the dissolution of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC).

Naija News reports that a former aide to the former PDP national chairman, Chuma Chinye, filed the case before the High Court sitting in Abuja.

In his application, Chinye argued that Secondus was illegally and forcefully removed from office as PDP national chairman among other things.

However, Secondus in a statement on Wednesday by his spokesman, Ike Abonyi, said he does not have anything to do with the case and was never privy to the case.

The former PDP chairman added that the case runs against the principles of exhausting internal party machinery in any case.

Abonyi quoted Secondus as saying, “He is distancing himself from it as it runs against his principles of the exhausting internal party machinery in any case before going to court.”
